The Modern’s unique programs for children emphasize learning through direct observation of art and thoughtful art activities inspired by the permanent collection and special exhibitions. Area artists, museum docents, and education staff design and lead these programs, introducing children to some of the complex and challenging concepts and practices behind modern and contemporary art.

Docent-led tours of art on view at the Modern are offered Tuesday through Sunday at 2 pm. A public tour focused on architecture is available on the first Saturday of each month at 11 am.These tours do not require prior arrangements and begin in the Museum lobby.

Free sketchbooks for children are available at the front desk. "Ten Pages" sketchbooks are for you to use to record your ideas and inspirations while looking at works of art in the galleries.

For questions, please call 817.840.2121 or contact the Education Department here.
Registration deadline for all classes is three weeks before the start date of the class.
